Assessment of the Articular Syndrome in Acute Rheumatic Fever According to Revision of the Jones Criteria

Journal Title: Біль. Суглоби. Хребет - Year 2015, Vol 4, Issue 20

Abstract

The article deals with the evaluation of arti­cular syndrome in children with acute rheumatic fever accor­ding to the revision of the Jones criteria 2015. Experts highlighted the major and minor criteria for populations with low and mode­rate-to-high risk of acute rheumatic fever. For low-risk populations, the evaluation of articular syndrome has not changed — polyarthritis remains the major, and polyarthralgia — the minor criterion. Whereas in populations with mo­derate and high risk, monoarthritis should be included to major criteria, as well as polyarthralgias, after careful exclusion of other causes of joint damage.
